    No Gapbuster money today then.....

    Gap money tends to appear during the day so a lack of it now doesn't mean you won't be paid during the say (although with gap who can tell)

    Mimi1234 darling, I checked my bank and Bare had not gone in, checked 5 minutes later (after reading the above posts) and voila it is in.

    Are you guys who've just been paid by BARE into banks able to tell us the exchange rate you got? Interested to see the difference from paypal.

    How do I work it out?

    I'm with Barlcays and they don't display the rate given (not that I can see anyway).

    I know the amount of Euro's I got and the amount paid in GBP, How do I work out what exchange rate was given?
    I get what i want. That isn't because i'm a brat or spoilt. It's because i'm determined, i work hard for it and i achieve my goals!

    Assuming they don't charge you for making the exchange then its just the amount in pounds divided by the amount in euros.

    If there is a charge PM me and I'll work it out for you cause I can do it but i'd struggle to explain it.
    This was 6 months out of date so I've changed it.
